Karnataka BJP to stage statewide protests against milk, curd price hike
Digital Desk | Davanagere (Karnataka), Oct 31 (IANS) The Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) will launch protests across Karnataka against the increase in milk and curd prices, State party President and MLA B.Y. Vijayendra said on Saturday, accusing the Congress-led state government of burdening ordinary people with successive price hikes. Speaking to media persons in Davanagere, Vijayendra added that the state government had presented the price hike as a Deepavali and Kannada Rajyotsava gift to the people. The price of milk had been increased by Rs 8 per litre, while curd prices had also been raised. The State BJP President said that the state government was preparing to increase bus fares in the coming days. We agree that the increase in milk prices will benefit farmers. However, it is not right to burden consumers in the name of helping farmers. The state government should have increased the subsidy on milk and borne the additional expenditure itself, he added. He alleged that the Congress government had increased the prices of petrol, liquor, milk and stamp duty since coming to power in Karnataka. People were also facing additional expenses in hospitals, bike taxis and parking, the BJP leader said, adding that the rising cost of living had made life increasingly difficult for ordinary families. Demanding the withdrawal of the price hike, Vijayendra said the state government should bear the additional expenditure instead of passing it on to consumers. Otherwise, the BJP would intensify its agitation across the state, he warned the state government. Reacting to Congress leader Ugrappa's statement that protests would be held during Prime Minister Narendra Modi's visit if the Valmiki community's reservation was not included in the Ninth Schedule of the Constitution, Vijayendra accused the Congress of indulging in political theatrics. He criticised the state government for failing to resolve the problems of sugarcane growers, describing its handling of the issue as idiculous. Citing the special package being provided to farmers in Haryana, Vijayendra urged the Karnataka government to make sincere efforts to address the concerns of sugarcane growers. Responding to the Chief Minister D.K. Shivakumar's statement that there was no money to purchase diesel for buses, he said the BJP had been demanding a white paper on the state's financial condition for the past six months. In response to our (BJP's) demand, they have shown their pockets. Is any bigger evidence required? Vijayendra asked. He also claimed that around Rs 1,700 crore in subsidies payable to milk producers remained pending. The inability to purchase diesel for buses indicated that the state exchequer was running dry, he alleged. Vijayendra said the NDA's victory in all four Legislative Council constituencies was a fitting response from the people to the Congress government and its administrative failures. He asked what solutions the Congress leaders had offered to people's problems despite repeatedly promising good news in Belagavi. He accused the state government of focusing on guarantees while neglecting its basic responsibilities. Welcoming the state government's decision to provide employment opportunities to Kannadigas in the IT and Biotechnology sectors, Vijayendra asked the Chief Minister to clarify how many of the lakhs of vacant posts in various state government departments had been filled. Responding to queries about internal differences within the BJP, Vijayendra said challenges only increased his enthusiasm. Despite facing challenges, we have won all four Legislative Council seats. The confusion within the party will be resolved soon. The issues in Davanagere will also be sorted out. I have complete confidence in the party organisation and the strength of our workers, he added. Commenting on the Congress's proposed protest in Delhi, Vijayendra alleged that Congress leader Rahul Gandhi was frustrated by the growing popularity of Prime Minister Narendra Modi. He accused the Congress of conspiring to destabilise the Central government and create anarchy in the country, alleging that it was attempting to create confusion and instability with the support of Communist organisations. In response, the BJP has launched a nationwide 'Save Democracy, Eradicate Anarchy' campaign. Various programmes would also be organised across Karnataka as part of the initiative, he said. A padayatra would be conducted in the Chitradurga division, with around 10,000 people expected to participate. Public interactions and other programmes would also be organised to create awareness among people. The campaign would highlight the achievements of the NDA government at the Centre and the public welfare initiatives undertaken under Prime Minister Narendra Modi's leadership, Vijayendra added.

Digital Desk | Ekta Nagar, Oct 31 (IANS) Anti-Naxal units from across the country showcased their role in operations against Left-wing extremism at the Rashtriya Ekta Diwas parade in Ekta Nagar on Saturday, while a subsequent National School of Drama production brought tribal artists from several formerly Maoist-affected states to the national stage. The parade, held to mark the 151st birth anniversary of Sardar Vallabhbhai Patel, featured specialised forces from Bihar, Jharkhand, Karnataka, Kerala, Madhya Pradesh, Odisha, Maharashtra, Telangana and West Bengal, along with units of the Central Reserve Police Force (CRPF) and Chhattisgarh Police. The contingents marched past the gathering as officials outlined their deployment areas, operations and personnel who had died in the line of duty. Among the units was Bihar Polices Special Task Force. The announcer said the force operated in 22 districts, including Gaya, Jamui and Lakhisarai, and had killed 167 Naxalites, arrested 7,191 and secured the surrender of 371. PM Modi and officials also paid tribute to 191 personnel who had died. The Sashastra Seema Bal contingent, led by Assistant Commandant Vipin Sharma, was credited with killing 16 Naxalites, arresting 1,382 and recovering 536 kg of explosives. Other contingents included Jharkhands Jaguar, Karnatakas Anti-Naxal Force, Kerala Polices Special Operations Group, Madhya Pradeshs Hawk Force and Odishas Special Operations Group. Maharashtras C-60 commandos, whose strength was described as having grown from seven personnel to 1,100, were credited with killing 372 Naxalites, securing 861 surrenders and making 559 arrests. Telanganas Greyhounds, described as a specialised force of 1,250 commandos, were also part of the parade. The announcer highlighted their operations in the Karegutta hills. The parade also featured West Bengal Polices Counter Insurgency Force, the National Cadet Corps and a CRPF-led dog squad. The latter comprised sniffer dogs trained to detect explosives and assist in identifying ambush-related threats. The event concluded this segment with a National School of Drama production titled Naxal-free India. Conceived, written and directed by NSD director Chittaranjan Tripathi, the presentation traced the movements beginnings in Naxalbari in West Bengal in 1967 and the subsequent efforts to restore peace in areas affected by Left-wing extremism. Its performers included NSD repertory artists and tribal artists from Maharashtra, Madhya Pradesh, Telangana, Andhra Pradesh, Kerala, Jharkhand, West Bengal, Chhattisgarh and Odisha. The announcer said several had travelled from their villages carrying their languages, songs and folk traditions to perform on a national platform. The presentation sought to place the experiences and cultural identities of communities from conflict-affected regions alongside the security forces account of the campaign against Naxalism.
The responses broadly call for easier access to government grants/funding and research facilities, partnerships with government, transparent and time-bound government processes,usage of technology to solve civic problems, and so on.
Digital Desk | Bengaluru, Oct 31 (IANS) Congress' Karnataka President B.K. Hariprasad on Saturday said that Krupa Alva had been expelled from the party for six years after she failed to respond to a show-cause notice issued to her over activities that had reportedly caused embarrassment to party leaders. Krupa Alva was prominently seen in the alleged sting video linked to Congress Working Committee Member and former Chief Minister Siddaramaiah. She is also heard making statements in connection with obtaining a party ticket to contest assembly polls from the coastal Karnataka region. Speaking to the media, Hariprasad said that unfavourable reports had appeared in the media over certain activities that had put public representatives and party leaders in an embarrassing position. The party had issued a show-cause notice to Alva, giving her three days to submit an explanation. As she did not respond to the notice, she has been expelled from the party for six years, he said. Asked whether the notice had reached her, Hariprasad said it had been returned. The notice sent to her came back undelivered. We had no other option but to take this action, he said. Asked about reports that Alva had travelled abroad, Hariprasad said the matter would be looked into by the central agencies concerned, including the Intelligence Bureau (IB) and the Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI). On why the party had taken so long to initiate action, he said the leadership had wanted to give Alva an opportunity to explain her position before taking a decision. In a democratic system, everyone should be given an opportunity. We issued the notice and waited for her response. Since she did not reply, we took a decision, he said. Asked whether the party would conduct an internal inquiry to find out if anyone else was behind Alva, Hariprasad said the matter had been left to the authorities concerned. He added that the party had expelled her because there was direct evidence against her. Reacting to the Congress victory in the Nagpur MLC polls, Hariprasad made a pointed political remark, saying that Nagpur meant 'Havinapura' (land of snakes) in Kannada. He alleged that an organisation spreading the poison of hatred in the country had been challenged there and said the victory would send a message that it could be defeated across the country. Responding to claims that the BJP had defeated the Congress, he said the party should not make such claims, pointing out that it had suffered defeats in Varanasi, Bihar, Nagpur and constituencies associated with prominent BJP leaders, including Union Minister Nitin Gadkari and Uttar Pradesh Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath. On JD-S chief and former Prime Minister H.D. Deve Gowda meeting former Karnataka Chief Minister B.S. Yediyurappa and subsequently commenting on the future of the state government, Hariprasad took a sarcastic dig. When an elephant walks, wolves and foxes follow behind it, hoping that something might fall. There is nothing wrong with that, he said. Regarding the proposed protest in Delhi, Hariprasad said Congress leader Rahul Gandhi had called upon party workers to fight to protect democracy and the Constitution. He alleged that permission had not been granted for railway arrangements to transport party workers from Karnataka, causing difficulties in their participation. He said thousands of Congress workers from Karnataka had already reached Delhi and would participate in a massive protest at Ramlila Maidan to defend democracy and the Constitution.

He said the decision also reflected the government's reverence for the cow, regarded as a mother, and its commitment to protecting cattle. The Karnataka Cabinet on Thursday approved a Rs 8 per litre increase in milk prices across all categories. According to Shivakumar, milk producers had sought a hike of Rs 12 per litre. Prices are much higher in neighbouring states, and farmers in Karnataka were moving their milk to those states. Milk availability is declining as well. Due to drought, milk production has come down, Shivakumar told reporters here. We have no other option. If we want to protect our cows, we must provide them with good food. To provide them with food, we need fodder. For fodder to be available, farmers must be in a good financial position and have money in their ha

Cong leaders pay tribute to Indira Gandhi on death anniversary; recall her sacrifices, legacy
Digital Desk | New Delhi, Oct 31 (IANS) Congress leaders on Saturday paid tributes to late Prime Minister Indira Gandhi on her 42nd death anniversary, remembering her contributions and sacrifices for the country and describing her as a leader whose legacy continues to inspire generations. Congress President Mallikarjun Kharge, Congress Parliamentary Party Chairperson Sonia Gandhi, Leader of Opposition in the Lok Sabha Rahul Gandhi and other party leaders visited the Indira Gandhi Memorial and offered floral tributes to the late Prime Minister at Shakti Sthal. In Bengaluru, Karnataka Pradesh Congress Committee President B.K. Hariprasad remembered Indira Gandhi as the 'Iron Lady' of India and said she had sacrificed her life for the unity of the country. Today is the 42nd death anniversary of my great leader, the Iron Lady of India, Indira Gandhi. It is the 42nd death anniversary. Indira Gandhi sacrificed her life for the unity of this country. Her great sacrifices will be remembered forever when we talk about the unity of the great country that is India, he told IANS. All India Mahila Congress President Alka Lamba also paid tribute to Indira Gandhi, recalling her contribution to women's political participation and the establishment of the Mahila Congress. Indira-ji can never be forgotten; there is no question of merely remembering her. She lives on in our memories, through her sacrifice and devotion. Martyr, India's first female Prime Minister, Bharat Ratna Indira Gandhi-ji, on her martyrdom day, we remember her, Lamba said. She said she felt proud to lead an organisation whose foundation and establishment were laid by Indira Gandhi, adding that the late Prime Minister had not only provided women with an organisation but had also insisted on their active participation in politics. That dream was realised by Rajiv Gandhi by bringing 33 per cent reservation for women in Panchayati Raj. Following that, Sonia Gandhi took it further by passing the Women's Reservation Bill, she added. Indian Youth Congress (IYC) President, Uday Bhanu Chib, also remembered Indira Gandhi's contribution to the country and said her sacrifice continued to inspire the organisation. We remember Indira Gandhi. We remember what she has done for this country. She has sacrificed her life for the betterment of our country, Hindustan, and we are following the same path, he said. Indira Gandhi was born on November 19, 1917, in Allahabad, Uttar Pradesh, into a Kashmiri Pandit family. She was the daughter of India's first Prime Minister, Jawaharlal Nehru, and Kamala Nehru. National Integration Day, observed annually on November 19, coincides with Indira Gandhi's birth anniversary and serves to honour her pivotal role in shaping India's political, social, and economic journey. As India progresses toward becoming a global power, National Integration Day acts as a reminder of Gandhi's contributions to unifying the nation. The observance was instituted by the Indian National Congress in 1985 to commemorate her efforts in promoting unity. During her tenure as Prime Minister from 1966 to 1977 and again from 1980 until her assassination in 1984, Indira Gandhi worked relentlessly to strengthen national integration. Her political career was defined by her unwavering commitment to unity and integrity. One of her landmark achievements was her decisive leadership during the 1971 India-Pakistan war, which led to the creation of Bangladesh. Her actions solidified her reputation as a leader with a strong vision and resolve. The Green Revolution led by Indira Gandhi supported and expanded high-yielding agricultural policies that helped steer India toward food self-reliance and security. Indira Gandhi also authorised India's first peaceful nuclear test in Pokhran in 1974 and significantly advanced the country's space program. She chaired the Non-Aligned Movement and positioned India as an influential voice for developing nations during the Cold War and also nationalised 14 of India's largest commercial banks to redirect credit toward agriculture, small industries, and rural development.
